I've owned my 1990 Mazda b2200 pickup for the last 25 years. However I can no longer keep up with the maintenance and I'm looking to either sell or donate the truck. I have switched out the carburetor for the Weber and gotten rid of all the vacuum hoses it also has aluminum wheels and a premium sound system. However owing to the fact that it is a 32-year-old truck it does have some fuel system issues and probably needs a good deal of maintenance. (It runs well when it is started but the battery does not hold charge and I have to use starting fluid spray into the carburetor in order to get the engine primed but once it starts it runs well.) I'm not looking to profit but I also don't want to just salvage the truck since it is a very good truck and I would like to give it to somebody who is going to be able to do something with it whether that's as a part truck for their project or as a fixer upper of their own. If you are interested let me know at b2200ec@gmail.com

 

Pics?

 

Where are you located? I'm in Gainesville.......and I know a few things about these trucks......and I probably own more than my share.

 

Do you still have the truck. I'm a few hours north and have an 89 that I believe could benefit from a parts truck or a friend lol It's my first and wore out but I love it and have a $1500 parts list that I'm about to slowly start chipping away at... But I'd love to have one for parts or possibly project number 2!!

 

Hello, just to update, the truck has sold.

 

Yes it has! LOL
Thanks Bailey2200!
I cleaned up the engine compartment this evening, got a battery for her, and going to replace a few parts next. I'll post a few pictures here for you soon.

 

You have a sickness, my friend.

 

I had a strong feeling that it was you who had purchased this, Cliff !

 

Yep. Bailey2200 and his wife are some very good people, and I enjoyed meeting them........turns out my buddy that lives near me (yeah, I keep his B2200 truck going also!) actually stopped by their house about a year ago to see if he wanted to sell it.......but he had not made up his mind to sell it back then. So when I went back to load the truck on a trailer, I took my buddy with me, and it was funny to see them remember, back when my buddy stopped by there........turns out he's friends with the wife's Mom also! Funny how things work out!

I haven't had time to do anything else with it yet......I am backed up on plan drawing right now! My after-hours spare job is getting to be a full time job!

Here is a pic of the truck as it sits right now.....haven't even had time to wash it!!

 

I'm doing well myself dealing with retirement, consider that path...
